O Sacred Head Lyrics - Grant Amy

O Sacred Head 

By Amy Grant 

O sacred head now wounded 

With grief and shame way down, 

Now scornfully surrounded 

With thorns thine only crown, 

How art thou pale with anguish, 

With sore abuse and scorn. 

How does that visage languish, 

Which once was bright as morn. 

What language shall I borrow 

To thank thee dearest man? 

For this, thy dying sorrow, 

Thy pity without end. 

O make me thine forever, 

And should I fainting be, 

Lord, let me never, ever 

Outlive my love to thee.
